What if.......we manage to scrape past Sunderland, Toon and Palace Ironic we still have to play 3 of the bottom 5 - remember the last few fixtures when Hughton / Adams were at the helm?
No idea if this is true, but I doubt they'd state it if not? FourFourTweet @FourFourTweet As it stands, the bottom 3 sides in the PL have more top-division titles between them (17) than the top 3 (15).
Stat attack showing the drop in revenue from the relegation season to the one that follows. Quite terrifying - and the gulf is poised to widen still further please log in to view this image
Emphasises the point I've been making all season, it is IMPERATIVE that we retain PL status this year.
The "race" for Kyle Lafferty is hotting up, apparently? What total bollux, he's still sat on his ass in Norwich somewhere as he has been all season. Not much of a "race" then is it...oh, I forgot, nearly time for the loan window to "slam shut" https://www.clubcall.com/norwich-city/lafferty-race-hots-up-1804322.html? Poor guy, expected to help N'iron acquit themselves in the Euros in 3 months - and has forgotten what a football looks like!
We should have let him go out on loan in January - with our "one striker" policy he's always gonna be 4th in line and that don't even get him a place bumwarming. The saving in wages would have surely helped our finances and giving him real playing time would help Northern Ireland's position as well I would have thought. Missed opportunity methinks.
